Collision commands
Collision commands allow you to override certain aspects of the default behavior set for models
during collisions. If neither of the models involved in the collision has
you can manually resolve the collision using
for model B.

Selecting models
Selecting models (picking) refers to clicking on models in a 3D cast member. Because models are
objects that exist within a 3D cast member and a 3D sprite, they are not normally sensitive to
mouse clicks. Normally it is only the entire sprite that is sensitive to mouse clicks.
You can use Lingo to determine specifically which models have been clicked when a user clicks
within a 3D sprite. In practice, this allows for changing model positions to make it appear that an
action such as a button being pushed or a door being opened has taken place. Picking can be
accomplished using cast member or camera commands.
Access Description
Get Vector describing world-space location of collision. Available
only if the collision has been resolved. Occurs if the model's

resolveB()
Get Vector indicating direction of collision. Available only if the
collision has been resolved. Occurs if the model's collision
modifier
collisionData resolveA()
